A Chicago-based blues singer and guitarist who rapidly built a reputation as a strong slide guitarist on the Chicago blues circuit. Connor's 1989 debut album on Blind Pig ("Believe It!") tabbed her as a talent to watch. She was born in Worcester, MA, and migrated to the Windy City in the mid 80s, joining Dion Payton and the 43rd Street Band and backing Payton on Alligator's "New Bluebloods" anthology in 1987. Connor went solo soon thereafter and currently tours with her own band with five releases on Blind Pig Records. ~ Bill Dahl
